What We Are Made OF.
Professor Langley.

Professor Langley.
In the South Kensington Museum
there is an immense collection OF OBJ
jects appealing to all tastes and all
classes, and we find there at the same
time people belonging to the wealthy
and cultivated part ofsociety, lingering
over the Louis Seize cabinets or the old
majolica, and the artisan and his wife
studying the statements as to the rela-
tive economy OF baking powders. or ad-
miring Tppoo Saib's wooden tiger.
There is one shelf, however, which
seems to have some attraction COM
mon to all social grades, for its con-
tents appear to be OF equal interest to
the peer and costermonger. 1t is the
representation OF q man resolved into
his chemical elements. or rather, an
exhibition of the materials of which
the human body is composed. There
is q definite amount of water, for in
stance, in our blood and tissues, and
there on the shelf are just
go many gallons OF water in a large
vessel. Another jar shows the exact
quantity Of carbon in US; smaller bot
ties contain our iron and our phos-
phorus in just proportion, while 9TH
ers exhibit still other constituents OF
the body, and the whole reposes on
the shelf, as if ready for the coming of
new Frankenstein to recreate the
original man and make him walk
about again as wedo. The little walls
that contain the different elements
which we all bear about in small pro-
portions are more numerous, and
they suggest not merely the complex
lty of our constitutions but the iden-
tity of our elements with those We
have found by the spectroscope, not
alone in the sun, but even in the dis
tant stars and nebulae, for this won
derful instrument of the new astron-
omy can find the traces of poison in
a stomach or analyze a star, and Its
conclusion leads us to think that the
ancients were nearly right when they
called man a microcosm, or little uni
verse. We have literally within our
bodies samples OF themost important
elements of which the great universe
without is composed, and you and |
are not only like each other, and
brothers in humanity, but children OF
the sun and stars in q more literal
sense, having bodies actually made in
large part of the same things that
made Sirius and Aldubaran. They
and we are near relatives.

A Story of Grant.

One day half dozen reporters met
on the doorstep of Gen. Grants resi-.
dence in this city. Each one was bent
on the same mission, viz, to try and
get the general to talk about his
changed opinions regarding the IA
nous case of Fitz-John Porter.
"Pse 'fraid Gen'l Grant won't see
you" said the colored attendant who
opened the door.
"Well. you tell him that representa-
tives of all the leading New York pa
pers are here" suggested one OF the
clan, persuasively.
Call right, sab, but Use fraid it's
no use. He don't talk to no newspa-
per man no more"
The newspaper men, however,
crowded into the little rece ption room
off the hall and awaited results.
Presently Gen. Grant came down
stairs. AS soon as he caught sight oil
the group of scribes he threw up his
hands in mock despair and exclaimed:
"Don't shoot! / am unarmedl"
He listened attentively while one oil
the reporters explained to him the OBJ
ject of the invasion and then he said:
Now, boys, l cannot say a word to
you on that subject to-day, but am
glad to see, you, nevertheless. Harri-
son addressing his servant |, bring
some cigars! must say that l like
newspaper men, reporters particular
ly. When they take hold of anything
they take hold in earnest and they
don't let go very soon either. have
just written someletters in relation to
Gen. Porter's case, and until those let
tiers reach the persons to whom they
are addressed do not think it would
be proper for me to talk on the sub
ject. Here, have some cigars, won't
you? l wish that I could do some
thing to repay you for your troublein
coming way up here" OF course the
reporters accepted the cigars. What
smoker is there who would have de-
clined to accept weed from Gen.
Grant.-New York Times.
